Please help, I've stupidly given out my bank details, address, email and mobile number to a scammer. It is the scam when they ask you to pay the freight fee which is when i realised it was a scammed and didn't send anything but I had already given all my information. What can they do? Can they access my bank account? can the do identity fraud? what do i do??????

Sadly this is not a paypal problem as none of the transaction has or would be done using paypals site.

You probably responded to fake paypal emails.

 

Not sure what country you are in but your best bet is to seek help from a site / company in your country that deals in identity fraud.

Also tell your bank what has happened and email provider if you provided your mobile number and you use 2FA !!
